I don't use gnome but Lubuntu with xubuntu-desktop, and then it connects with the xfce desktop when running xrdp and connecting with rdesktop from another Ubuntu computer. See the attached dump of...
After a couple of days I'll summarize my findings about these questions
Yes
No
Maybe the first time to learn, or maybe you interrupt it after a while, or if you need to be 100% sure it's...
@HermanAB,
I guess you are writing about the 'ATA Security Feature Set' described in
man hdparm
This manual is rather intimidating with a lot of warnings: DANGEROUS, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK,...
Hi Jim :-)
Boot from another drive, for example your Ubuntu install CD or USB drive. Mount the partition with your file browser.
Assume it is partition /dev/sda1 and that it is mounted on...

You just told us the solution ;-)
Boot from the newer Ubuntu install disk or if you have problems, download the iso files of Lubuntu 12.04 and Knoppix.
Make CD/DVD/USB drives and run a live...
Hi again,
Long time no see :-)
I think you can get rid of the visited sites, but the downloads are there as files until you remove them yourself. I doubt that there is a tool that will...
I guess you mean fast on a [fairly] new computer, for example fast booting, fast loading of programs and HD video playing without problems :-)
I agree about LMDE. Out of the box it can do what...
I mean: What is different in your install (according to post #1) and those distros? What are you giving priority, and what are you skipping?
Interesting :KS
Har du jämfört din installation jämfört med Knoppix och Linux Mint Debian?
Having fun finding out :-)

Let us talk more via [Ubuntu Forum] Private Messages :-)
I sent one to you. Can you find it?
Hi Jim,
Maybe we are distant relatives :-)

I see that you have two linux partitions: /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda4. What are these partitions? Two separate linux installations, or two partitions that are part of the same installation, typically a...
Sorry, I did not notice the specs in your signature! Anyway I'm happy it works for you now. I see you have two linux partitions. Are both working installations? Or should you actually wipe one of...
+1 to Yannbuntu's suggestions
Furthermore, since you have no Windows or other file system to preserve it should be easy to install
- Ubuntu with Unity or Gnome 3
or some other flavour,

Since you can still use the printer via the USB port, have you considered installing new firmware (or reinstalling the current version of the firmware)? And then, try to manage the printer from...
Thanks again bodhi.zazen,
Having fun finding out :-)

Thank you for the clear directive about server management :KS
What about the desktop at home, that is also an ssh- and samba-server in the LAN? If there is no [authorized] access from outside the...
Conclusion:
The LXDE package gets security updates for 18 months. After that it should not be used, particularly not in a server.
Hi everybody interested in security for servers!
What implications are there for someone who is not primarily interested in Lubuntu, but has an ubuntu-server and runs LXDE for convenience (instead...

for sticking to LTS versions and waiting till June or July to launch the system. But in the meantime, test the different desktop environments together with some selected persons in the user group!
So now you have a working operating system again with 12.04 beta :KS My impression is also that it is already quite good.
The next step is to try some desktop environments alongside with 'the...
I have checked what is available during boot of my Windows XP. You wrote that you have Windows 7, but these things might be similar, at least you could try.
Press the F8 key during boot (before...
Thank you for this information. It is probably connected to the fact that the desktop version has 5 years of support (as is the case for the previous server LTS versions). So in practise, check if...
